Brent A. Binkowski, Minneapolis, MN US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090240104Surgical Articles and Methods for Treating Pelvic Conditions - An implant, insertion tool, combinations, and associated methods, that involve placement of a self-fixating tip at tissue of the pelvic region, wherein an insertion tool includes one or more of an aperture for engaging a guide and an extension guard, the method optionally allowing for initial placement of a self-fixating tip at tissue of the pelvic region and adjustment of the location of the self-fixating tip. A threading guide is provided to assist in threading the guide through the aperture. An anchor also provided to with a retaining member to retain the anchor in tissue.09-24-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090305280Luciferase biosensors for camp - A modified luciferase protein which is a sensor for molecules including cAMP is provided. The modified luciferase protein includes one or more heterologous amino acid sequences, at least one of which directly or indirectly interacts with cAMP.12-10-2009
20110039257Permuted and nonpermuted luciferase biosensors - A modified luciferase protein which is a sensor for molecules including cAMP, cGMP, calcium, chelators thereof, kinases, or phosphatases is provided. Also provided is a circularly permuted anthozoan luciferase protein and a decapod crustacean luciferase protein, optionally containing one or more heterologous amino acid sequences, at least one of which directly or indirectly interacts with a molecule of interest. Further provided is a modified anthozoan luciferase protein and a decapod crustacean luciferase protein containing an insertion of one or more heterologous amino acid sequences, at least one of which directly or indirectly interacts with a molecule of interest.02-17-2011
20110283373MUTANT PROTEASE BIOSENSORS WITH ENHANCED DETECTION CHARACTERISTICS - A polynucleotide encoding a biosensor polypeptide comprising a modified circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase and a linker linking the C-terminal portion of the thermostable luciferase to the N-terminal portion of the thermostable luciferase. The modified circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase is modified relative to a parental circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase. The linker contains a sensor region capable of interacting with a target molecule in a cell. The modified circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase has an enhanced response after interaction of the biosensor with the target molecule relative to the parental circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase in the presence of the target molecule. Alternatively, the modified circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase has an enhanced response after interaction of the biosensor with the target molecule relative to the modified circularly-permuted thermostable luciferase in the absence of the target molecule.11-17-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110309558METHOD FOR PRODUCING MOLDED PARTS FROM A POLYOXYMETHYLENE POLYMER - The invention relates to a process for the production of moldings composed of a polyoxymethylene polymer via blow molding, in which the polyoxymethylene polymer is extruded to give tubing, using an extruder with a grooved feed section, where the feed section is heated to a temperature in the range from 100 to 230° C., and the extruded tubing composed of the polyoxymethylene polymer is introduced into a blow mold, and a molding composed of the extruded tubing is produced in the blow mold.12-22-2011
